Dear Party Girl

Thanks.
model born in Shiraz, raised in Holland, living in Irvin
by John Carpenter III (not verified) on Sat Aug 02, 2008 02:55 PM PDTI remember several other Iranian female models. One was cyberchik, Angylina. The other was Aylar Dianati Lie. As I recall, one went into porn and the other had a soft porn internet site. Time has passed Aylar Dianti Lie got a role in a music video after sleeping with every member of the rock band. Nothing has been heard from either model since. It's a long shot if she every becomes famous. Not even Shams Pahlavi's grand daughter was able to enter country music in the United States. And let me tell you it is easy to enter country music. No normal person listens to that crap.
As for me, I am a Persian born in the United States of America who is a rock and roll star . And I have been a free-lance writer on the internet, new york times, and the BBC internet editorials. I exercise regularly.
Does it get any better than this?
Yes, febrauary 1979 I started a movement that promotes a democratic republic in Iran, a government similar to that in the United States of America...having the social freedoms that are present in Amsterdam, Holland. My movment is opposed to any type of monarchial government ever again exisiting in Iran.
good for her....but

Best of luck to this girl, especially since I find modelling and acting incredibly boring. It's mostly sitting around, but she can study further during the long breaks.
20 wings and a beer please
by Saman on Fri Aug 01, 2008 03:54 PM PDTA year a go I'd say, she'd make a classy Hooters girl. She's got the brains and everything. But thank God for 70% of Iranian girls, we have parstimes.com to discover these ladies today.
smart and beautiful
by Shahrokh from Swiss (not verified) on Fri Aug 01, 2008 01:50 PM PDTI think she is a smart and beautiful lady and she can make it. That is what amazes me about persians. Many of us went through higher education inspite of our difficult situation regarding imigration, financial and racial problems we are facing.
over 70% of iranians living in Germany have a university degree. That says all about our abilities.
Lady be focused and continue doing what you do.
Dont pay attention to anybody.
wish you all the best
Wow
by programmer craig on Fri Aug 01, 2008 01:44 PM PDTWould it be too tacky to make a "She's hot!" comment without analyzing what she should do with the rest of her life? :D
the interviewer needs practice
by desertlion (not verified) on Fri Aug 01, 2008 01:35 PM PDTShe definitely has modeling characteristics and best of luck to her.
I jsut get pissed off listening to some of these reporters or whatever their title, who have no idea how to interview. This interview is not smooth and doesn't flow and it seems like the guy is running out of questions and somehow he just wants to continue. Reminds me of dorks at a bar trying to pickup a chic but stumble on the conversation :-)
well there is plan G too:
by Modeling consultant for the past 80 years :) (not verified) on Fri Aug 01, 2008 12:40 PM PDTPlan G consist of finding a nice and educated man from a good family and marrying him and having an average life, just in case plan A-F not work out.
Either way, she seems like a very nice lady and one way or another she will be fine. She is young.
I love the fact she has
by Kouroush Sassanian on Fri Aug 01, 2008 11:00 AM PDTI love the fact she has plans for all possiblities in her life. If not A then B and if B fails then C, but I have a feeling she has only planned to the letter C. I strongly suggest you add plan "D", as your backup plan to make both boobs even.
With plan "D" you can even get in a wreck scar your face and continue to be model or a dentist.
She was approached in Holland to be a model - translation, to wit:
Dar Shar be ma peshnahadatee shoud, just like Aynollah, sorry, Bagharzadah!

She reminds of Anglina Joli.
by magma (not verified) on Fri Aug 01, 2008 09:50 AM PDTShe reminds of Anglina Joli. I wish her every success. She definitely should go to college.
You better concentrate on Modeling!!
by farshadjon on Fri Aug 01, 2008 09:42 AM PDTTruly,
Waste of time!! What does " Aspiring" means? I can not see it here.
She is saying, "If I lost half of my face in an accident, I will have a back up plan to survive."
You are either Model or Dentist! You cannot persue both.
What I think is that her parents pushing her to have some education but as you can see, her interest is somewhere else.
I really can not understand Iranian parents mentality. The same was with Maz Jobrani.
Have a nice Long weeeknd, everyone.
